various pastelarias (cake shops): Goodies of Macau
Walk around the streets of Macau, you will find many tiny outlets of pastelarias (cake shops) selling you a variety of tit-bits, sweets, cookies, tarts, nuts and a range of flavoured meat floss. Vendors at these little shops are very generous - as you walk pass their shops they will hand you samples of their goodies for you to taste. Don't be shy - take a piece and you are not obliged to buy them. Macau's specialties are the Portuguese tarts and the almond cookies - you have to taste them !
